Constructor Detail

TableVariableDeclaration

public TableVariableDeclaration(AbstractExpression parent)

Creates a new TableVariableDeclaration.

Parameters:

parent - The parent of this expression

Method Detail

accept

public void accept(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits this Expression by the given visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - The ExpressionVisitor to visit this object

acceptChildren

public void acceptChildren(ExpressionVisitor visitor)

Visits the children of this Expression. This method can be used to optimize traversing the children since a new list is not created every time Expression.children() is called.

This does not traverse the Expression sub-hierarchy, use a subclass of AbstractTraverseChildrenVisitor in order to traverse the entire sub-hierarchy.

Parameters:

visitor - The visitor to visit the children of this object.

addChildrenTo

protected void addChildrenTo(java.util.Collection<Expression> children)

Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given collection.

Overrides:

addChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

children - The collection used to store the children

addOrderedChildrenTo

protected void addOrderedChildrenTo(java.util.List<Expression> children)

Adds the children of this AbstractExpression to the given list.

Overrides:

addOrderedChildrenTo in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

children - The list used to store the string representation of this AbstractExpression

findQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF findQueryBNF(Expression expression)

Retrieves the JPQLQueryBNF that represents the fragment of this Expression that was used when parsing the given Expression.

Specified by:

findQueryBNF in interface Expression

Overrides:

findQueryBNF in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

expression - The Expression that is a descendant of this one

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF that was used to parse the given expression

getActualAsIdentifier

public java.lang.String getActualAsIdentifier()

Returns the actual AS found in the string representation of the JPQL query, which has the actual case that was used.

Returns:

The AS identifier that was actually parsed, or an empty string if it was not parsed

getIdentificationVariable

public Expression getIdentificationVariable()

Returns the Expression that represents the identification variable.

Returns:

The expression that was parsed representing the identification variable

getQueryBNF

public JPQLQueryBNF getQueryBNF()

Returns the BNF of this Expression.

Returns:

The JPQLQueryBNF, which represents the grammar of this Expression

getTableExpression

public TableExpression getTableExpression()

Returns the TableExpression that specify the database table.

Returns:

The expression that was parsed specifying the database table

hasAs

public boolean hasAs()

Determines whether the identifier AS was parsed.

Returns:

true if the identifier AS was parsed; false otherwise

hasIdentificationVariable

public boolean hasIdentificationVariable()

Determines whether the identification variable was parsed.

Returns:

true if the identification variable was parsed; false otherwise

hasSpaceAfterAs

public boolean hasSpaceAfterAs()

Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after AS.

Returns:

true if there was a whitespace after AS; false otherwise

hasSpaceAfterTableExpression

public boolean hasSpaceAfterTableExpression()

Determines whether a whitespace was parsed after the table expression.

Returns:

true if there was a whitespace after the table expression; false otherwise

isParsingComplete

protected boolean isParsingComplete(WordParser wordParser,
                                    java.lang.String word,
                                    Expression expression)

Determines whether the parsing is complete based on what is left in the given text. The text is never empty.

Overrides:

isParsingComplete in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

wordParser - The text to parse based on the current position of the cursor

word - The word that was retrieved from the given text, which is the first word in the text

expression - The Expression that has already been parsed

Returns:

true if the text no longer can't be parsed by the current expression; false if more can be parsed

parse

protected void parse(WordParser wordParser,
                     boolean tolerant)

Parses the query by starting at the current position, which is part of the given WordParser.

Specified by:

parse in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

wordParser - The text to parse based on the current position of the cursor

tolerant - Determines whether the parsing system should be tolerant, meaning if it should try to parse invalid or incomplete queries

toParsedText

protected void toParsedText(java.lang.StringBuilder writer,
                            boolean actual)

Generates a string representation of this Expression, including its children, if it has any.

Specified by:

toParsedText in class AbstractExpression

Parameters:

writer - The buffer used to append this Expression's string representation

actual - Determines whether the string representation should represent what was parsed, i.e. include any "virtual" whitespace (such as ending whitespace) and the actual case of the JPQL identifiers
